Projection for Plant Protection Machinery of Kayseri Province
Projection for Plant Protection Machinery of Kayseri Province
Plant protection covers all the processes regarding the yield loss due to weeds, diseases and pests. Plant protection practices consist of chemical, cultural, biological, mechanical and integrated methods. Pest control is one of the most preferred plant protection methods which is due to easy to apply and has high speed of effect. The selection of the spraying unit that carries the pesticide to the target in the pest control plays an important role in the success of the application. However, the adsorption ratio of the pesticide on target have varies according to the sprayer, the application norm, the interaction between the plant and the environment. In recent years, the production systems in which human and environment have been protected in agriculture have been developed, and the safe and controlled use of plant protection machinery has started to gain importance. The aim of this study is to determine the projection coefficient of machine technology used in plant protection processes in Kayseri province, depending on the past ten years production and usage quantities.
